​Last Sunday was a perfect day to be at the park. The weather was cool and the leaves were just starting to change. The kids rode their bikes and Mia and I walked around the lake.

​I love Fall. There is nothing better than spending an afternoon outside in the cool Fall air and then warming up with a warm bowl of chili for dinner. Crock Pot turkey chili is one of my favorite recipes to make when we have a busy day planned. I put all of the ingredients in my crock pot, turn it on and walk away for 5 hours. This is a super simple dinner that lets me spend more time outside with my family and less time in the kitchen.

Stir together all ingredients except buttermilk and cheese. Add to crock pot and cook on high for 5 1/2 hours. Stir in buttermilk and cook 30 minutes. Serve with cheese.

​I served this chili to my husbands parents. We all really liked it. It's not very spicy so it's super kid friendly. It's also a great way to use up leftover turkey or chicken. I love that it's loaded with vegetables and my kids still eat it. (Please don't tell them its healthy.)

​My suggestion for a great warm up meal on a cool Fall day - Turkey Chili.
